    Wilder shouldn't be top 3 either. Both time he lost, he didn't just 'lose'.He got outclassed, beaten up and made to look like an amateur.

    Povetkin has the far better resume, was competitive vs Joshua while it lasted, is the far more skilled and better fighter. He should be number 3.

    You could argue Whyte, despite his recent L, should be above Wilder too.

    1.Fury
    2.Joshua
    3.Povetkin
    4.Whyte
    5.Wilder
    6.Ruiz Jr
    7.Pulev
    8.Hunter
    9.Ortiz
    10.Parker
    Who did Ruiz Jr beat to be number 6 and AJ doesnt count because it was obviously a fluke or Ruiz Jr would still be holding the belts. Other than that he fought Parker to a draw but you have Parker ranked 4 spots lower.

      Obviously

      Other than Furys and Joshua's wins over Klitschko, he has the best single W in the division

        Ortiz surely hanging onto that top 5 placing by the tip of his fingers.

        He needs a good fight.

              Look at this idiot saying KO'ing the heavyweight champ shouldn't count towards your rankings.

              Imagine typing that

                Its heavyweight boxing Ruiz Jr landed a well placed shot. Obviously it was a fluke or he wouldn't have got a boxing lesson in the rematch.

                Raheem knocked Lewis out did that make him a top 10 fighter or is that pretty much his legacy. Depends on how you look at it I suppose. I can hit 50000 on a scratch of but that doesnt make me a good gambler it means I'm lucky once. Ruiz is a joke in the division until he does something to show me otherwise.

                    Single being the key word there. 1 win doesnt make you a elite fighter or top of the list.

                      The only thing Ruiz has successfully defended is the dollar menu
